The Schedule referred t9 in these Letters -Patent and making partof. the samev Be i't known that lI, HORACE W. KNIGHT, of SenecaJ Falls, Seneca county, in the Stute of New York, have invented a new and useful Printers andOopyists Guide and Copy-Frame; aud'I do declare that the following is a i'ull, clear, and exact description ot'fthe construction ori-Jperation oi' the saine, reference being,r had to the annexed draining, ina-king n part of this specilcation, which is a. front view of the guide and copy-frame, as used hy printers.

'lh" object ot" my invention is tofurnish 'a guide and copy-ti-ameior holder, for printers especially, that will" elevate the copy from otf the case ot' type and bring it the upper case, (or cap case) without disturbing the copy, and one furnished with joint :tud set-screw, as shown at E and I, to ada-pt the copy .to the various positions and shades of light, and one that can be put 0n any port of a case, by putting the 'slot c on any ot' the partitions ot' the case, to hold it in position; and,

hold the copy in an elevated position2 and be a, great convenience on account ot'l its elevating the copy above/ the boxes, and nea-rer to the eyes.

What I claim as my iuvention,a'nd desire to secureby Letters Patent, is-

'lhe use of joints and set-screws t' and e, to hold the `'rame'on which the copy rests in different elevated positions, and the slots c and d, t-o allow the frame to fit on the partitions of the case, the rubber band a,
